Without having read their short stories, it's difficult to accurately define the characteristics. However, in the world of short stories, some common features could be a powerful opening to hook the reader immediately. They may also have a theme that is both relatable and thought - provoking. Additionally, the language used might be carefully crafted to convey maximum impact in a short span, perhaps with clever use of dialogue or internal monologue.
Since I'm not aware of their short stories, it's hard to say. But generally, good short stories often have strong characters, a concise plot that still manages to be engaging, and a unique voice. They might use vivid descriptions to bring the story to life in a limited number of words.
As I haven't read any short stories by them, I can only speculate. It could be that their stories might have elements of mystery or suspense if they follow the trends of many popular short story genres. They might also be character - driven, with complex relationships between the characters explored within the short space. Another possibility is that they use local or personal experiences to add authenticity to their stories.
